Your best diabetic friendly meal favorites?  | | I've rencently discovered that my mother has Type 2 Diabeties, which means a whole new way of eating for us. I was devistated at the thought, as she's not a fan of healthy eating and I really think that food will be the key in helping or hurting her health. Well, I checked out the Splenda website and they had a few recipes that looked really good, gave me some hope. So I was wondering, do you have any diabetic diet friendly favorites? What are they and how do you prepare them?

gmakesmoney (1038) | 3 years ago | That all sounds good and great advice, thanks! I'm wishing I had that chicken wrap right now, lol. I think the pasta salad would be great for her, she'd like that. Breads are huge in my house, she's a white bread addict. So that one is going to be a little tough but luckly she'll eat whole grains. We love cinnamon so I can think of a million ways to use that. Lately, I've been putting it in when I cook veggies like carrots or corn on the cob with a pinch of cayanne pepper and it gives everything such a yummy flavor.

gmakesmoney (1038) | 3 years ago | I love Sara Lee and I think we've used that bread before. Yup we have, I remember she liked it because it kept longer. Our kitchen is sunny and for some reason bread goes bad fast no matter where we put it and whole grain breads almsot seem to never go bad. I'll have to put that on our shopping list, thanks!
